Renault HO

The Renault HO is a French agricultural tractor of the 1920s. It derives from the tracked Renault HI, which itself came from the FT tank of 1916, and is the first Renault tractor fitted with wheels, offered with steel wheels for field work or with rubber tyres. As on the GP and the HI, the radiator is placed in the centre of the vehicle behind the engine. The engine has four cylinders in an L layout of 3,200 cubic centimetres and develops 20 hp at 1,600 rpm. The tractor was produced from 1921 to 1926 in 210 examples. It sold rather badly because it was too heavy, fairly expensive and used a lot of petrol.
